Accelerate Global Innovation – Electronically synchronize new
product introduction workflows on a global scale to ensure every
site has up-to-date, accurate information. What results is
improved market responsiveness that supports design, build and
sell anywhere operations strategies.
Expand Material Synchronization Across all Operations –
Integrate manufacturing with planning and design applications
(ex: ERP, PLM, etc.) to synchronize Work in Process (WIP), raw
materials, finished goods and other inventory on an enterprise-
wide scale to better support Pull, Lean, Quality, NPI, Six Sigma,
Just-in-Time / Just-in-Sequence and other manufacturing
initiatives.
Improve Quality & Compliance on a Global Scale – A solution to
transform “As built” genealogy and process history into
intelligence that enables proactive compliance monitoring, rapid
response to adverse quality events, reduce warranty costs,
improve on-time shipments and respond with greater agility to
ever changing market conditions.

Improve collaboration – between corporate quality, manufacturing sites
and trade partners to better coordinate corrective actions, reducing
manual and time-consuming tasks prone to error
Centralize track and trace analysis – without requiring replacement of
existing manufacturing systems to provide better insight into product
genealogy and packaging hierarchy at any time
Handle Big Data of end-to-end traceability – without impacting
operational performance, as data is received from plants, suppliers and
logistics providers
Capture detailed global traceability and genealogy data automatically
–from multiple sources, to help reduce risk, protect brand equity and
help reduce the threat of counterfeiting
Address changing and emerging compliance requirements – by
providing readily available, detailed product pedigrees to demonstrate
auditable compliance and product authenticity
Accelerate process innovation – by leveraging manufacturing big data
and intelligence gained from expanded visibility, process improvement
across key operational areas is now possible, including beyond the four
walls

BI can help to improve efficiency at manufacturing organizations.
Globalization and new competition, in addition to weak economies, are
forcing manufacturers to run leaner and meaner. At the same time, they
must produce a greater number of types of products, if not custom products,
as well as maintain increasingly difficult standards.
Business intelligence: Business intelligence (BI) is a broad category of
applications and technologies for gathering, storing, analyzing, and
providing access to data to help enterprise users make better business
decisions. BI applications include the activities of decision support systems,
query and reporting, online analytical processing (OLAP), statistical
analysis, forecasting, and data mining.
Corporate performance management: Corporate performance management
(CPM) is the area of BI involved with monitoring and managing an
organization's performance, according to key performance indicators (KPIs)
such as revenue, return on investment (ROI), overhead, and operational
costs. For online businesses, CPM includes additional factors such as page
views, server load, network traffic, and transactions per second.
Key performance indicator: A key performance indicator (KPI) is a business
metric used to evaluate factors that are crucial to the success of an
organization. KPIs differ by organization: Business KPIs may be net
revenue or a customer loyalty metric, while government might consider
unemployment rates. KPIs are applied in BI to gauge business trends and
suggest tactical courses of action.

Complete Data Capture: All user entries are captured, electronically stored, and available for
reporting. This includes loading of external files, making them part of the batch record.
Data Integrity Checks: Each field can run automatic checks to ensure that the data entered is in
the correct format. Missing data, incorrect date formats or incorrect units of measure will never be
a problem.
Automated Calculations: Calculation logic ensures that each data item only has to be entered once
and can feed into calculations such as yield calculations or recipe amount calculations. Never worry
about accuracy of calculations again.
Performer/Witness Signoff: Each signature point can be configured for a single signature or
Performer/Witness signatures within an electronic batch record systems. Performer/Witness
signature points allow two users to submit their signatures from a single signoff window.
Parallel and Sequential Processing: Processing steps can be set up in a combination of sequential
and parallel units.
Integrates with Deviations: Every manufacturing process needs a mechanism to deviate from the
prescribed procedure, but controls must be in place to ensure that a deviation is acceptable.
Electronic batch records software seamlessly integrates the recording, assessment, and approval of
a planned or unplanned deviation into the overall manufacturing process. Deviations solutions also
link to other quality management modules such as Nonconformance and Controlled CAPA.
Analytics Reporting Tool: This built-in tool of an electronic batch records system comes with a
standard set of pre-configured reports that can be customized by the user. Production records can
be trended and analyzed by product, recipe, process stage, etc. These data-mining capabilities
provide important insights into overall production activities such as turnaround, quality issue
rates, etc.
Compliant System: EBR integration with regulations, providing time-stamped audit trails,
reporting, and electronic signature capabilities. Security features include dual passwords for
document approval as well as password expiration, encryption, and certification.
Unparalleled Validation: EBR validation an integral part of solutions for FDA-regulated
customers. EBR is revolutionary approach to validation dramatically cuts the time, effort, and cost
of validation, making it easier to validate future upgrades.
